I have Levante SQ4... for me - 1) the best handling SUV, lots of comfort, at high speed very Stable... u feel that u are driving a big SUV. 2) Dam THAT EXHAUST SOUND DRIVES ME CRAZY EVERY DAY! the best moment on my day..... turning on my levante and open those valves! Or acelerate till 4500-5000rpm and up shift in manual mode..... that BAM sound!!!! 3) the interior is just what u need in a car! Not that fancy screens... the infotaiment... is well position, Also buttons. - i see people saying jeep buttons or chrylers buttons- - every car manufacter does it - VW, Audi, Skoda, Porsche, seat group. MB and Nissan, Toyota and lexus, acura and honda.... 4) braking power is just excelent on the SQ4. And the best and final - THIS SUV REALLY TURN HEAD! . The only cons- low millage but.... if can buy one... u dont Care about gas.
A GN86 any issues at all, since you had it, am considering buying an used one, cpo, just concerned? I love in nyc, amd I can’t even find an warranty but I have money set to the side
This is awesome, honestly changed my mind. Before watching the vide i was going to comment i'd rather have an Audi SQ5.. but after watching this video... the Levante.... i LIKE!! The exhaust is so badass.
Rons Rides I saw Doug DeMueo review on this car yesterday and EVEN (!) he said that Levante is the coolest car in class by the handling, however it was 17 Levante. But also he said that it's too expensive (lunch) and has some flaws in interior (except Chrysler's parts)...
I can agree on some small points. The buttons and infotainment argument will always come up but other than that, I think its worth whatever you option it out to be. I dont see many more exciting SUV's on the market.
Dude this video is AWESOME. Well done! Now here I am, with a year to go on my XF and can't decide if I want a F-type or a Levante. Jaguar messed up not giving the XF a Sports Exhaust option..... Keep up the good work! Suggestion for next video? Most luxurious version of the Stelvio you can find. Apparently while the Giulia can have the luxury package with extended leather, Stelvio cannot.
Ron quick question I live in nyc, and am having an very hard time finding an warranty for this truck, I have money placed to the side just in case, am looking at one with 42,456 miles, s fully loaded,, should I even but the truck and just take an chance my Boy has one, base, so far no is for two years?
Is there an easy way to update the navigation maps without going to the dealer? Is there even an update available in USA? And one small correction, it downshifts for you even in sport manual mode
(Yep, changed my profile back to the way it was....) Anyways, my opinion on this car: I think the Levante suits this Nero with red leather and carbon package the best, out of all. Definitely a pretty car on stilts, but arguably a bit behind the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, dynamically. But hopefully the V8 powered Levante GTS will make the guys from Stuttgart have some sleepless nights!
Looks and sounds great. But the gas mileage is horrible for a V6 why? Is it because of the extra weight of the AWD system? Gearing? A Lincoln Navigator gets that. And the price...well I could get a Jeep Trackhawk with 700 hp has a few extra options and gets 20 mpg highway. A Durango SRT gets 23 highway with 470 hp. And they all 3 have the same 8 speed auto. For that price Im afraid it would be really hard to justify picking it over the others.
My first annual service starts at 1 year ownership or 12k miles. Whatever comes first and it was $350. Wasnt just oil though. A few small things. Made a video on it a while back. Second service coming up soon though!

Whats your average milage?
I love the Levante. One of the few vehicles where an auto manufacturer got it right the first time imo
Yeah and the sales prove it with this, Maserati has a winner on their hands.
My dream car!!!!!!!!!!😭
This is awesome, honestly changed my mind. Before watching the vide i was going to comment i'd rather have an Audi SQ5.. but after watching this video... the Levante.... i LIKE!! The exhaust is so badass.
Exhaust is out of this world!!! Glad I could show you what this beast can do =)
my uncle got one a month ago with rosso rubino very nice i drove twice and maybe next year I'm going to get one
Great video as usual, Ron! The Levante is DEFINITELY on my radar!!
21:01 oh me too buddy, don’t worry 🤣
The suspension lowers in sport mode 😱😈
Sure does!!
This is a beautiful car!
You should check out the 2019 Levante's!
Finally a video where somebody is telling the truth! this truck is a beast inside and out!🔥🦍
Love this brand, so different from the others, I love the Quattroporte SQ4 but the Levante is a cool family practical car.
Is the 2017 Levante with hydraulic stearing power better to drive then 2018 elecrtic-powered Levante?
Thats a good question and I'll have to get back to you because the only '18 we had here we sold. It was the blue Gransport.

Your smile says everything!! A crazy car
Thank you! And I think so too!

We need a ghibli gts :(
We really do!!!
I agree

Sounds great. I like it, the price though..... Awesome review Ron 👍
High price for sure but better than the Bentayga right? Lol, thank you!

Haha i was confused about your picture again. Yes! Has a long way to go but once that rumored GTS makes its way on the streets...OH MY LANTA!
You should do a vid on Quattroporte GTS
2 questions:
Are the grill bars metal?
About how fast we’re u going when you were testing the exhaust?
Grill bars are not metal due to weight savings and I plead the fifth on the second question lol.
How much does that maserati cost? I want one of that maserati

Question Ron : roughly how much are your oil changes?

3year is 1K.
after i watch this video i will watch what doug demuro has to say about the levante, he got a video.. i bet he is bashing it, he hates all maseratis
Ron are you from Michigan?
Litefeather 333 Florida
I live in Daytona Beach FL but Im from Saginaw Michigan, you?
Rons Rides from Kansas City, Mo live in Miami, Fl!
I have always wondered why do luxury vehicles have an OFFROAD mode? Why or who would spend 70k to take your car offroad... Am i missing something?
Right, the Ranger Rover and G-Wagons are off road capable but are probably 99% bound to regular roads given the owners who purchase them.
🤓suits you sir!
Haha thank you! Totally my spec!
Now let’s see if there’s any junk in this trunk 😭😂
No argument there 🤣
Haha short and sweet. Glad you liked it!
😎💯🔥🔥
